Mandy Rose Has No Idea Whether She'll Ever Return To WWE Following Acrimonious Exit
One of the biggest constants in wrestling over the years, particularly when it comes to WWE, is that wrestlers always seem to find their way back to the promotion, regardless of how acrimonious the split between the performer and promotion may be. And ever since her departure from WWE back in December 2022, fans have been wondering if that will be the case for former "NXT" Women's Champion Mandy Rose.
It may not be just yet, however. During a Q&A on her Instagram story over the weekend, which has since been captured by Twitter users, Rose showed little interest one way or another when asked about a potential WWE return.
"I don't know," Rose said. "I don't know what the future holds, so..."

Rose was released from WWE after the promotion took issue with suggestive content Rose had been posting onto her website on FanTime. Despite the release, which Rose would later describe as a "gut punch," she hasn't been hurting financially, as her FanTime content would eventually earn her over $1 million during December. As if the release wasn't shocking enough, Rose was let go only one day after her NXT Women's Championship reign came to an end, with Rose being defeated by Roxanne Perez.
Likely due to her success in third-party avenues, Rose hasn't seriously pursued an in ring return and hasn't wrestled since her WWE release, despite her noncompete clause with the promotion having long since expired. Rose hasn't dismissed returning to wrestling entirely, however, having previously stated she would be open to working for other promotions, including AEW.
